The products are suitable for all horticultural, agricultural and floricultural applications.

Darran Hodges, Sales & Marketing Director of Earth & Garden Sdn Bhd said, “Earth & Garden products will have the benefits of licensed and patented technology, which uses the waste products of palm oil production and other inert fibres from agricultural refining producing a complete growing medium suitable for all agricultural, horticultural and floricultural applications.” He also stated that “Earth & Garden will acquire two palm oil plantations for the purpose of establishing environmentally friendly palm oil nurseries. Our palm oil seedlings will be cultivated until ready for transfer to other plantations.”
